Soli, I have to say that your progress, positive attitude, and generous information is really making me feel better.. and inspired!! I definitely believe in massage although I haven't actually seen a much in the way of growth from that alone. But I am thinking that a short break from noogling with massage only is a good place to go from here. I REALLY hope I will be able to then go back to Noogling using a form of the pump and release method. If not, I'll go with the smaller cups! Wish me luck that I'll hit on a winning combination!

I totally agree with you that these are very accessible and viable tools as opposed to (gasp) surgery that can have horrible effects on your body. That's why I want NBE to work for me so much, because there's no way in you-know-where I'm going under a knife.

Just as a side-car story, I was feeling let down about this earlier today while grocery shopping. So I'm in the produce department, of course, and I see this chick who literally had the biggest rack I've ever seen.... I'm talking, with the green shirt she had on she could've gotten inside the watermelon bin and blended right in.

I could really live without irony sometimes!

Oh, I'm so glad you're not interested in surgery - my story is I did have breast implants, and it is BY FAR the most expensive lesson and the worst decision I ever made. Still, to this day, I deal with the repercussions to my body, and my final surgery (out of FOUR) was about 8 years ago. So, good for you for knowing that's not an option!

As for our lopsided friend in the produce department, message received: NO WEARING GREEN STRIPED SHIRTS WHEN I REACH WATERMELON-SIZED PROPORTIONS. It's just mean-spirited.

Xo, Soli

I'm so sorry to hear about all you've suffered from your surgeries! I always cringe when I hear about girls getting implants and such, especially when they're really too young to be making such drastic decisions about their bodies. I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinions about that, and I certainly wouldn't criticise anyone for wanting to improve their self-image.. after all, that's exactly what most of us on here are trying to achieve! But I hope more people will start trying natural approaches first, and save the scalpel as an absolute last resort.. which for me personally, it just isn't an option.
And by no means was I judging Grocery Store Girl's fashion choices. Something about the green just made them stand out even more, and made me feel flat as roadkill, ha. Oh I hope I won't be flat forever!
I may connect with you again in the next few weeks/months, Soli! I'm sure I'll come up with more boob questions. I can be a recurring pest sometimes. Thanks a million for your help and encouragement!!
